You hit the \u201cstart\u201d button, the time starts tracking; you hit the stop button, the tracker stops, and you have the total amount of time that\u2019s passed. While rudimentary, that in itself is data you can use to benefit your business.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, if you\u2019re working on a flat-rate project, you can use that time data to calculate your hourly rate. A $300 project might sound great, but if it takes you two 8-hour days to complete, you\u2019ve walked away with less than $19\/hour on the project <em>before tax<\/em>. That\u2019s hardly sustainable for a small business owner, especially given your invoiced amount is collected <em>pre-tax<\/em>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Developing a better understanding of how you spend your time can help you strategize methods to improve your efficiency, like using <a href=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/timeboxing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">timeboxing<\/a>. That knowledge is actionable, as it allows you to drop projects or services that aren\u2019t profitable for your business, adjust the way you do work to improve your project value, or even restructure your schedule in a way that makes your time more productive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, a good time tracker for small business owners not only tracks time but also saves you hours each month in accounting and billing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns cta-related-posts is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center left-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p class=\"related-post-heading\">Related Post<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/time-management\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The business owner&#8217;s guide to time management<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/author\/jeff-nichols\"><\/a><\/h4>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/time-management\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"793\" src=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/guide-to-time-management-1024x793.jpg\" alt=\"Business owner working on time management\" class=\"wp-image-91034\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hbb.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/guide-to-time-management-1024x793.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/hbb.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/guide-to-time-management-300x232.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hbb.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/guide-to-time-management-768x594.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hbb.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/guide-to-time-management-1536x1189.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/hbb.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/guide-to-time-management.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<a id=\"honeybook\"><\/a>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. HoneyBook&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, HoneyBook offers a full clientflow platform for capturing leads, booking clients, and delivering services. Its core features help enhance and speed up the booking process, which is why its <a href=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/time-tracking-billing-software\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">time tracking + billing software<\/a> is so helpful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/help.honeybook.com\/en\/articles\/2209234-using-the-time-tracker-on-desktop-and-the-mobile-app\">HoneyBook time tracker<\/a> is available on desktop as well as through its mobile app for both iPhone and Android users. You can use the stopwatch feature to start automatically tracking your time in real time, or log your time manually.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can view all of your time spent as different entries in your time report. Within the report, you can also mark each entry as billable or non-billable hours, download it as a CSV, or add the time entries to a specific project.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The HoneyBook time tracker integrates with the rest of the clientflow platform, so you can easily generate invoices, track your payments, and run your business all in one place (finally!).\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a id=\"timecamp\"><\/a>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. TimeCamp<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.timecamp.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">TimeCamp<\/a> is primarily a time tracking platform, but it also offers project management capabilities. With TimeCamp, you can track your time via desktop or app, create invoices and timesheets, and manage your budgets.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TimeCamp is especially useful for businesses with teams, since you can it to create Kanban boards and to-do lists, team planning, team chats, and more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Though TimeCamp also offers a lot of integrations, it isn\u2019t an all-in-one platform. So, if you\u2019re looking for more than time tracking and project management, it may not be the best fit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a id=\"toggl\"><\/a>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Toggl<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/toggl.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Toggl<\/a> offers a few different products, including Toggl Track, Toggl Plan, and Toggl Hire. If you\u2019re just looking for time tracking, you\u2019ll want to go with Toggl Track. With this tool, Toggl stands out because it offers more payroll features than other time-tracking apps.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if you manage team members, Toggl can be the best option to track your employees\u2019 time and conduct payroll in one place. Like other time-tracking tools, it also <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/invoicing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"invoicing\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">invoicing<\/a> capabilities, reporting, and budgeting.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Though Toggl also doesn\u2019t offer a lot of additional features for business management, you can also use Toggl Plan and Toggl Hire. Toggl Plan offers visual resource planning and tracking tools, which can pair nicely with your time tracking.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a id=\"myhours\"><\/a>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. MyHours<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re used to tracking your time in a spreadsheet but you\u2019re ready for something more robust, <a href=\"https:\/\/myhours.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">MyHours<\/a> is the way to go. This time-tracking tool is specifically designed for business owners who need timesheets.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like other popular tools, you can use a timer or log your time manually. What\u2019s great about MyHours is that it lets you organize and categorize your time for more efficient tracking. You can add custom fields, tags, and descriptions to all of your time entries.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MyHours will also remind you to track your time, so it\u2019s great if you need to consistently track in real time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a id=\"paymo\"><\/a>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Paymo<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Like Toggl, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paymoapp.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Paymo<\/a> is another time-tracking app that stands out for its payroll features. But what\u2019s great about Paymo is that it also offers robust project management tools.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you manage a small team, you can use Paymo to track time, pay your employees, and manage your projects from start to finish. Paymo also provides online invoicing and payments, but that\u2019s where it stops. If you\u2019re also looking for contracts, automations, and <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/effective-communication-with-clients\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"client communication\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">client communication<\/a>, you\u2019ll have to look elsewhere.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns cta-related-posts is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center left-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p class=\"related-post-heading\">Related Post<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/time-management-strategies\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">7 time management strategies for business owners<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/author\/jeff-nichols\"><\/a><\/h4>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/time-management-strategies\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"793\" src=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/time-management-strategies-1024x793.jpg\" alt=\"Woman checking her watch to manage her time properly\" class=\"wp-image-89035\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hbb.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/time-management-strategies-1024x793.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/hbb.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/time-management-strategies-300x232.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hbb.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/time-management-strategies-768x594.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hbb.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/time-management-strategies-1536x1189.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/hbb.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/time-management-strategies.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<a id=\"best\"><\/a>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the best time app for tracking time as a business owner?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The best <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/best-time-tracking-app\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"apps for tracking time\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">apps for tracking time<\/a> all depend on your needs.

If you want to simplify your spending and make business management easier on yourself, consider a more all-in-one tool like HoneyBook.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>HoneyBook is a clientflow platform that offers lead capture, invoicing, contracts, payments, client communication, automations, and so much more. You can design custom, interactive files to meet your needs from project start to finish.
